Distro updates with both SHORT FUSE singles, awesome german punk!


I just got NIGHT FEVER's debut LP in the distro.
Only 10 copies. Get some. Get it now.

The new color sleeves for the HÅRDA TIDER/BALANCE split EP has arrived. Now it's more legit.

Other news is that Sista Sekunden are ready to record a new full length which is gonna happen in February 2010. Expect our best recording ever, to be released by Instigate and some other awesome labels spring 2010!

Other recent new LP recordings has been done by some of the best swedish bands around: Masshysteri, Hårda Tider and Balance. Whether Instigate is gonna be a part of those releases is yet to see. Yeah...




The long awaited split with two of the most interesting bands from Malmö/Lund is finally out. Killer crusher know your style. Hårda Tider bring a more hardcore side to their already bonebreaking S.T. cha cha cha Cyko Miko hoodrat HC + they do a Warzone cover. Balance are more polished yet more punk than ever, sxe hardcore with a brutal honesty, this time convincing with a more political lyric + a cover on No Security!




Yo. For all yanks and canadicks, make sure to see Sweden's most boring band as we come to play music/rock in your area.

I'm back from the tour w DSB. It's been amazing, except for having to cancel all the shows with Sista Sekunden cause our singer was beat up black and blue at the first show in Copenhagen by some scum fucks. Anyhow the tour was great and our singer is going to recover, after several hospital visits.

There are some leftovers from the tour, such as tour shirts and DSB shirts. Drop me a line if you wanna buy some.

I have the new releases out now:
THE STATIC cassette
DSB cassette
SISTA SEK LP
SISTA SEK / I7S split 7"



My friends recently formed a band and after one listen I was hooked. We agreed on a demo tape release and I'm very happy to finally represent this kind of punk style on Instigate. It's like a basement where cockroaches and worms fight with no gloves and under the belt – so to speak – and the sound is The Static.

A seven track demo cassette is in the works. Planned release is March 1st, while I'm on tour. The Static will play their second live show that night in Malmö together with K-Märkt Kult, Masshysteri & Los Retardos. Make sure to be there and get yourself a copy. That is if they're out by then...

DSB tour starts in three days and I'm maxed out like a mongoose. We'll bring the whole distro and new releases on tour. See ya!




Sista Sekunden 2006 LP
The vinyl version is finally here! The first record on wax. 13 raw tracks. I'm extremely happy with the outcome, sounds good and look amazing. 500 copies made. Black vinyl, two color labels (black/silver), two color lyric sheet (blue/yellow), two color sleeve (red/black) and a sweet metal sticker on the front. Released by Instigate & Dempe (paid by SS...hehe).

Iscream 7 Showers / Sista Sekunden split 7"
Four songs by each band. I7S from Japan play past incredibly tight thash hardcore. We play hardcore..eh.. yes! Pretty amazing sound for beeing recorded in the rehearsal...
500 copies made. 8-page booklet in 7" size. Three color cover, one color inside. Co-release by Instigate (Sweden), Rock Room (Japan), Gaitan SS (USA) & Fight For Your Mind (France).

We are going on tour now, so get your copies when we come to your town. If you can't make it, mail us and we''ll take care of it when we get home, come mid March.

Instigate also has a new cassette release with DSB from Japan, in time for our tour together. 300 copies. Hard hitting crasher punk hardcore.

Imperial Leather just got back from their succesfull US Tour. It was a blast, according to new bassist Bullret. Don't miss their new LP on Profane Existence or the repress first EP on Instigate. Out now, dirt cheap!

Just a short note that we've updated the photo and distro section. Make sure to check it out.

GORILLA ANGREB aborted 2000 EP is almost sold out. Repress is not ordered yet, it'll probably take a while.


The website is finally up and running, it's a great relief, after all the hazzle with my domain companies.

A new release has been added to the Instigate family; SKITKIDS välkomna till paradiset 7" EP. I'm doing it with Kick N Punch (just like the Onna For Pleasure 12"). It was originally released by Timmy/540 Records in USA to support Skitkids US tour, but I'm pretty sure he's gonna keep it in press, just like we intend to. It has 4 songs, maybe the best recorded material by Skitkids ever, and best sound by far!

The distro hasn't been updated in a while, I'll try and get this done this week.


Disptr built me a new website! It looks swell ey?! Expect more updates and hot images from now on.

Restocks on Paintbox, Knugen Faller and much more.
